I understand you have to fly your trips, but show me one thing your membership is doing to support the Midwest pilots?
Maybe we can't call you scabs, but you are being used as "virtual scabs" and bragging about it. Show me something right, moral, supportive, positive, professional about how your pilot group in handling the Midwest flying...
... letters from your MEC to the Midwest membership
... pictures of your members picketing with the Midwest guys
... a letter from your MEC to BB supporting Midwest pilots
I couldn't agree more. If Republic pilots make no effort to show unity towards their fellow pilots being effected, then they are throwing out all dignity and respect in my opinion. Thats like killing your friend, getting away with it, and then showing up at the funeral just to spit on their grave.
